Human evidence remains limited to controlled studies. A phase 2 trial in adults with obesity reported large, dose-dependent reductions in body weight over 48 weeks, with gastrointestinal events as the most frequently recorded adverse effect. Phase 3 programs designated TRIUMPH, for obesity, and TRANSCEND, for type 2 diabetes, are intended to confirm efficacy and to characterize safety in larger populations. Related studies are examining conditions such as knee osteoarthritis in people with obesity and metabolic liver disease. Open questions include long-term tolerability, effects on lean mass, and what happens after treatment is stopped.
Retatrutide is an investigational synthetic peptide that acts on three receptor targets at once: glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide, glucagon-like peptide-1, and glucagon. It is developed by Eli Lilly and appears in the literature and in trial registries under the code LY3437943. The molecule belongs to a class of engineered peptides designed to resist rapid breakdown and permit infrequent subcutaneous administration. No regulatory agency has approved it for clinical use, and all available human data come from controlled trials rather than from routine practice.
The intended pharmacology combines three signals in one molecule. GLP-1 receptor activation reduces appetite and slows gastric emptying, effects already exploited by approved incretin-based therapies. GIP receptor engagement is associated with improved insulin sensitivity and with direct effects on adipose tissue, although how much it contributes to overall outcomes is still debated. Glucagon receptor agonism raises energy expenditure and supports hepatic lipid handling, a mechanism that also tends to increase glucose output. The triple profile is hypothesized to produce a larger metabolic effect than single or dual agonism, but the relative weight of each receptor in humans is not settled.
该分子是经过结构修饰的合成肽，通过脂肪酸侧链与白蛋白结合，从而延长循环时间。皮下给药后，药物逐步释放并分布至组织。降解主要依赖蛋白酶，肾脏清除占次要地位。人体半衰期以天为单位，但准确数值随检测方法和个体差异而变；组织分布与受体占有率仍是开放问题。
临床研究通常测量体重、腰围、空腹血糖、糖化血红蛋白和血脂，并记录不良事件。药代动力学评估关注浓度-时间曲线，药效动力学评估关注代谢标志物变化。体重下降由能量摄入减少、能量消耗变化和脂肪组织重塑共同造成，具体权重仍不明确。研究之间的终点定义和随访时长差异使横向比较复杂。
瑞他鲁肽同时激活GLP-1受体、GIP受体和胰高血糖素受体，这三者均属于B类G蛋白偶联受体。受体激活后主要经cAMP信号通路传递效应。GLP-1成分与食欲抑制和胃排空延缓相关，GIP成分影响脂肪组织与胰岛素分泌，胰高血糖素成分则促进肝糖输出和能量消耗。各受体贡献的相对比例在人体中尚未完全量化。

This reagent is a good formylating agent and can regenerate the unsubstituted imidazole (with formation of carbon monoxide) upon heating. Yet another reaction involves the acylation of triphenylalkelynephosphoranes.
The discovery of feathered dinosaurs led to debate regarding whether, and to what extent, Tyrannosaurus might have been feathered. Filamentous structures, which are commonly recognized as the precursors of feathers, have been reported in the small-bodied, basal tyrannosauroid Dilong paradoxus from the Early Cretaceous Yixian Formation of China in 2004. Because integumentary impressions of larger tyrannosauroids known at that time showed evidence of scales, the researchers who studied Dilong speculated that insulating feathers might have been lost by larger species due to their smaller surface-to-volume ratio. The subsequent discovery of the giant species Yutyrannus huali, also from the Yixian, showed that even some large tyrannosauroids had feathers covering much of their bodies, casting doubt on the hypothesis that they were a size-related feature. A 2017 study reviewed known skin impressions of tyrannosaurids, including those of a Tyrannosaurus specimen nicknamed "Wyrex" (HMNS 2006.1743.01, formerly known as BHI 6230) which preserves patches of mosaic scales on the tail, hip, and neck. The study concluded that feather covering of large tyrannosaurids such as Tyrannosaurus was, if present, limited to the upper side of the trunk. A conference abstract published in 2016 posited that theropods such as Tyrannosaurus had their upper teeth covered in lips, instead of bare teeth as seen in crocodilians. This was based on the presence of enamel, which according to the study needs to remain hydrated, an issue not faced by aquatic animals like crocodilians.
== Uses == Because of their amphiphilic structures, the polymers have surfactant properties that make them useful in industrial applications. Among other things, they can be used to increase the water solubility of hydrophobic, oily substances or otherwise increase the miscibility of two substances with different hydrophobicities. For this reason, these polymers are commonly used in industrial applications, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. They have also been evaluated for various drug delivery applications and were shown to sensitize drug-resistant cancers to chemotherapy. In bioprocess applications, poloxamers are used in cell culture media for their cell cushioning effects because their addition leads to less stressful shear conditions for cells in reactors. There are grades of poloxamers commercially available specifically for cell culture, including Kolliphor P 188 Bio. In materials science, the poloxamer P123 has recently been used in the synthesis of mesoporous materials, including SBA-15. In colloidal science, certain poloxamers such as Pluronic F-108 or Pluronic F-127, are used as steric stabilizers to prevent coalescence and/or reduce aggregation. In the case of hydrophobic colloids, the poloxamer's interior hydrophobic block is absorbed into the colloid while the two hydrophilic tails remain suspended in solution, creating a steric barrier. When mixed with water, concentrated solutions of poloxamers can form hydrogels. These gels can be extruded easily, acting as a carrier for other particles, and used for robocasting.

The term poison is often used colloquially to describe any harmful substance, especially corrosive substances, carcinogens, mutagens, teratogens, and harmful pollutants. In everyday language, it is sometimes used to exaggerate the perceived danger of certain chemicals. The 16th-century physician Paracelsus (1493–1541), regarded as the father of toxicology, famously stated: "Everything is poison, there is poison in everything. Only the dose makes a thing not a poison." (See: LD50). The term is also used in a figurative sense—for example: "His brother's presence poisoned the atmosphere at the party." In contrast, legal definitions of "poison" tend to be narrower. Some substances that are not legally required to carry a "poison" label may still cause medical conditions associated with poisoning. Some poisons are also classified as toxins, which are toxic substances produced by living organisms. Examples include bacterial proteins responsible for conditions such as tetanus and botulism. While a distinction exists between "poison" and "toxin", the terms are often used interchangeably, even in scientific contexts. Related adjectives include toxic and poisonous, which are generally considered synonymous. Poisonous substances introduced into the body by sting or bite are known as venoms. In everyday usage, a poisonous organism is one that causes harm when ingested or touched, while a venomous organism uses venom actively to incapacitate prey or deter predators. Although rare, some organisms may be both poisonous and venomous.
This museum is part of the large historical memorial commemorating victory in the Patriotic War of 1812 over Napoleon's army; this memorial also includes a triumphal arch erected in 1827. In addition, Moscow contains a military history museum containing statues and military hardware. The Memorial Museum of Cosmonautics under the Monument to the Conquerors of Space at the end of Cosmonauts Alley is the central memorial for Russian space officials. The Shchusev State Museum of Architecture is the national museum of Russian architecture, named after the architect Alexey Shchusev. This museum is located near the Kremlin.
==== Chinese, Korean, and Japanese-language ==== A 2010 systematic review of the Chinese-language literature found numerous acupuncture-related adverse events, including pneumothorax, fainting, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and infection as the most frequent, and cardiovascular injuries, subarachnoid hemorrhage, pneumothorax, and recurrent cerebral hemorrhage as the most serious, most of which were due to improper technique. Between 1980 and 2009, the Chinese-language literature reported 479 adverse events. Prospective surveys show that mild, transient acupuncture-associated adverse events ranged from 6.71% to 15%. In a study with 190,924 patients, the prevalence of serious adverse events was roughly 0.024%. Another study showed a rate of adverse events requiring specific treatment of 2.2%, 4,963 incidences among 229,230 patients. Infections, mainly hepatitis, after acupuncture are reported often in English-language research, though are rarely reported in Chinese-language research, making it plausible that acupuncture-associated infections have been underreported in China. Infections were mostly caused by poor sterilization of acupuncture needles.
== History == Efficacy was evaluated in ARROS-1 (NCT05118789), a multi-center, single-arm, open-label, multi-cohort trial in participants with previously treated locally advanced or metastatic ROS1-positive NSCLC. The efficacy population included 117 participants; 59 who received one prior ROS1 tyrosine kinase inhibitor and 58 who received two or more prior ROS1 tyrosine kinase inhibitors, including lorlatinib, repotrectinib, and/or taletrectinib.
== National Guard career == Noriega graduated from Chorrillos in 1962 with a specialization in engineering. He returned to Panama and joined the Panama National Guard. Posted to Colón, he was commissioned as a second lieutenant in September 1962. His commanding officer in Colón was Omar Torrijos, then a major in the National Guard. Torrijos became a patron and mentor to Noriega. In a 1962 incident Torrijos helped Noriega avoid legal trouble after a prostitute accused Noriega of beating and raping her. Soon after, Noriega's drinking and violence obliged Torrijos to confine him to his quarters for a month. Despite Noriega's problems, Torrijos maintained their relationship, ensuring they were always in the same command; he also brought Díaz Herrera into the same unit. Díaz Herrera and Noriega became both friends and rivals for Torrijos's favor. In 1964 Noriega had been posted to the province of Chiriquí, where Torrijos and Díaz Herrera were stationed. At the time, Arnulfo Arias, a native of that province, was preparing to contest the 1968 Panamanian Presidential election. Arias was a member of the National Revolutionary Party that represented the Panameñista movement. The sitting president, Roberto Chiari, belonged to the Liberal Party, which ordered Torrijos to harass Arias's party members and weaken his election bid. Torrijos passed this task on to Noriega, whose men arrested a number of people. Several prisoners said that they had been tortured; others stated they had been raped in prison.

Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD), also known as Bridges–Good syndrome, chronic granulomatous disorder, and Quie syndrome, is a diverse group of hereditary diseases in which certain cells of the immune system have difficulty forming the reactive oxygen compounds (most importantly the superoxide radical due to defective phagocyte NADPH oxidase) used to kill certain ingested pathogens. This leads to the formation of granulomas in many organs. CGD affects about 1 in 200,000 people in the United States, with about 20 new cases diagnosed each year. This condition was first discovered in 1950 in a series of four boys from Minnesota, and in 1957 it was named "a fatal granulomatosus of childhood" in a publication describing their disease. The underlying cellular mechanism that causes chronic granulomatous disease was discovered in 1967, and research since that time has further elucidated the molecular mechanisms underlying the disease. Bernard Babior made key contributions in linking the defect of superoxide production of white blood cells, to the cause of the disease. In 1986, the X-linked form of CGD was the first disease for which positional cloning was used to identify the underlying genetic mutation.
==== IDF's use of white phosphorus ==== On 31 October 2023, after an investigation, Amnesty International stated that an Israeli white phosphorus attack on 16 October was indiscriminate, unlawful, and "must be investigated as a war crime", due to its use on the populated Lebanese town of Dhayra, which injured at least nine civilians. On 2 November, Amnesty International stated its investigations into four incidents on 10, 11, 16 and 17 October showed Israel had used white phosphorus munitions. The claim was confirmed by the Washington Post, which identified two white phosphorus shell casings made in the U.S. Human Rights Watch verified IDF's use of white phosphorus in at least 17 municipalities in Lebanon, including five municipalities where airburst munitions were used over residential areas. It also called on the Lebanese government to file a declaration to enable investigations in the International Criminal Court. In southern Lebanon, Israel's white phosphorus bombs have destroyed over 4,500 hectares (45 million m2) of forest with economic loses being valued at US$20 million. The American University of Beirut estimated use of white phosphorus has led to more than 134 forest fires as of June 2024 burning 1,500 hectares (15 million m2) of land. As of 28 May 2024, the Lebanese Ministry of Public Health said that exposure to white phosphorus had injured at least 173 people.
An interesting feature of these phases is that both polar and nonpolar compounds can be retained over some range of mobile phase composition (organic/aqueous). The retention mechanism of polar compounds has recently been shown to be the result of the formation of a hydroxide layer on the surface of the silica hydride.[3] Thus positively charged analytes are attracted to the negatively charged surface and other polar analytes are likely to be retained through displacement of hydroxide or other charged species on the surface. This property distinguishes it from a pure HILIC (hydrophilic interaction chromatography) columns where separation by polar differences is obtained through partitioning into a water-rich layer on the surface, or a pure RP stationary phase on which separation by nonpolar differences in solutes is obtained with very limited secondary mechanisms operating. Another important feature of the hydride-based phases is that for many analyses it is usually not necessary to use a high pH mobile phase to analyze polar compounds such as bases. The aqueous component of the mobile phase usually contains from 0.1 to 0.5% formic or acetic acid, which is compatible with detector techniques that include mass spectral analysis.
ASH1L (also called huASH1, ASH1, ASH1L1, ASH1-like, or KMT2H) is a histone-lysine N-methyltransferase enzyme encoded by the ASH1L gene located at chromosomal band 1q22. ASH1L is the human homolog of Drosophila Ash1 (absent, small, or homeotic-like). Ash1 was discovered as a gene causing an imaginal disc mutant phenotype in Drosophila. Ash1 is a member of the trithorax-group (trxG) of proteins, a group of transcriptional activators that are involved in regulating Hox gene expression and body segment identity. Drosophila Ash1 interacts with trithorax to regulate ultrabithorax expression. The human ASH1L gene spans 227.5 kb on chromosome 1, band q22. This region is rearranged in a variety of human cancers such as leukemia, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, and some solid tumors. The gene is expressed in multiple tissues, with highest levels in brain, kidney, and heart, as a 10.5-kb mRNA transcript. Mutations in ASH1L in humans have been associated with autism, epilepsy, and intellectual disability.

It is an investigational peptide that activates three hormone receptors: GIP, GLP-1 and glucagon. It is being studied mainly for obesity and type 2 diabetes, and it is not approved for any clinical use. Published information comes from controlled trials rather than from general practice.
No. As of the most recent public information it remains investigational in every jurisdiction. Material sold under this name outside trials is a research chemical, not an approved medicine. Current status should always be checked against regulator notices.
Dual agonists act on two receptors, usually GIP and GLP-1. Retatrutide adds glucagon receptor activity, which is associated with increased energy expenditure. Whether that third component adds clinically meaningful benefit over dual agonism remains an open question.
